The Results of That Survey I've Been Begging You To Take

In case the categories are hard to read in the graph, here they are again:

I am/was worried about the effect it would have on my children. 31%

I don't know and never knew there was a need. 23%

I don't/didn't want the county or state getting involved in my life. 19%

I am/was worried I would get too attached to the kids in my care and couldn't give them back. 29%

I hear/heard horror stories about kids in foster care and didn't want the hassle. 12%

I don't/didn't feel that God was calling me to do it. 16%

Life Situation Incompatible (No Time, Energy, Resources) 40%

First of all, thanks to everyone who helped me get to 1000.  

Secondly, this obviously is not official research, but I think it is pretty representative of our world today.

Finally, stay tuned!   Once we have Licensed Child Placing Agency status at Patrick Henry Family Services I am going to be able to tell you some exciting news about how the program we are starting is going to address several of the concerns above.  

I'm so excited!
